- Learn the four different ways to adapt (aka Frankenstein) the famous Meyer-Optik Gorlitz (MOG) 80mm f/2.8 "Diaplan" projector lens.
This lens is also known as the "Pentacon 80mm f2.8" lens, and the "Poor Man's Trioplan" lens.
The German Diaplan slide projector lens is an easy lens to adapt to modern digital cameras. It's known for its' sharpness, rich colors, and incredible soap bubble bokeh!

Thank you very much. I used an additional way and printed a 3D printed Adaptor for Pentax PK.
I can focus to infinity. It does not work with M 42. You showed this.
Fantastic!
Very informative!
Exactly what I needed to go ahead with my Diaplan purchase.
Thanks for this upload.
No problem 👍
Thanks for the video. I am currently trying to print a mount with the 3d printer. I really like the solution with the helicoid adapter. Thank you for showing me.
Good luck with the 3D printer. Feel free to let us all know how that works out!
You can explain this wonderfully, have you ever converted an old petzval / brass lens to an M42 lens? I would be very interested, especially with these sometimes huge lenses.
Where to buy OEM helicoid in #2? I just bought my 2nd diaplan project lens but with no helicoid. .. can you help? thenks
Thanks a lot, I wonder if a lens made for the 8 or super 8 film format can cover the aps-c format and therefore adapt to these bodies?
Up to what size can lenses be used with the Bellow in this way, as in variant 1? So how thin can it be minimum / maximum and how large can it be maximum?
The same with the length, how long can a lens go to the back, theoretically the depth of the lens could also be 15cm?
Thanks for the useful video.
I've ordered a Diaplan 80mm f3.5 a few days ago with the original focusing helicoid to adapt it easily to a M39-FX adapter. Did you try this 3.5 version, what do you think about it?
I have owned a couple of the f/3.5 versions over the years. Nothing wrong with them, in fact, I think that they are every bit as good as the f/2.8 version, except of course their depth of field is not as thin. Being a confirmed "bokeholic", I of course prefer the f/2.8 version. But for most photographers out there, I expect they'd be very happy with the f3.5 version.
@@AffordablePhotography thanks for your kind answer. I'm also a bokeh lover, I hope the smaller aperture will be enough anyway. Subscribed to your channel.
Please, I'm going crazy. I have searched for the Nikon k2 ring in my country. But the prices are prohibitive. Is there an equivalent clone ring that doesn't cost me an arm and a leg? I have the lens and the adapter for my mount but I don't know where to find a cheap one. :(
Sorry to hear that. Here in the USA, K rings are still cheap. Just a couple weeks ago I purchased all 5 K rings (and a leather case) for just $20 USD on eBay.
@@AffordablePhotography I saw your video and bought the Diaplan on the spot. I already have the 52 reverse canon for my Canon R6, but finding the K2 is delaying the experience of enjoying this self-made lens. Anyway, let's see if I'm lucky and find one. Thank you for responding and infinite thanks for your video!! You explain everything in a very simple and didactic way. Greetings from Spain.
How can i buy these ?
Money….
Jk. eBay…..and money.
